Release Date: April 7, 2011
Two-dimensional shoot up originally released on the Xbox 360, and later also released on PCs. While playing, we steer one of the several available combat ships and fight countless enemies.
Bullet Soul is a two-dimensional shoot'em up. The game was released in 2011 on Xbox 360, and after a few years it appeared on PC, in a version including all additions released for the original.
The title is a classic shoot'em up. The players steer a combat ship that flies upwards. Our only goal is to survive and achieve the best possible result. The task is not easy, as the screen is flooded with projectiles and enemies. Therefore, the player has to display good reflexes, master the rules and get to know the opponents. In addition, the developers prepared three different vehicles (and one additional one in the so-called "B version" of the title).
Fun in Bullet Soul takes place in a classic story campaign, in which we have to complete a series of levels and defeat a few bosses. In addition, we can also train in Bancho Mode and race against time in Caravan Mode. There game also offers global leaderboards.
Shoot'em ups in general aren't the most technically advanced video game genre, but they usually look impressive nevertheless. This is no different in the case of Bullet Soul. While playing, the screen shimmers with tons of colors, the combat is accompanied by various effects, and the action is so fast that you can't notice any deficiencies anyway.

Game Ratings for Bullet Soul Video Game.
Gamers Heroes: 6 / 10 by Casey Scheld
Bullet Soul takes liberal notes from classic 90s shooters like Raiden, putting the focus on firing and dodging bullets. Though it lacks the depth and replayabilty of classics like Ikaruga or Radiant Silvergun, players looking to rise the leaderboards will enjoy blasting through waves of alien scum.
CGMagazine: 7.5 / 10 by Elias Blondeau
Bullet Soul is a solid bit of enthralling bullet hell action, complete with arresting visuals and a stellar score, that makes a compelling offer at its low price point.
Cubed3: 7 / 10 by Gabriel Jones
Bullet Soul is quite the oddity. Rarely has an STG emphasised bullet cancelling so much. On one hand, this unique quality certainly helps the game stand out, but on the other hand, it makes the difficulty feel a little uneven. The player will sometimes feel like they're just waiting for something to happen, but when it does, they might panic and lose their ship. Over time, they'll grasp an understanding of which enemies to focus on and how long it takes to destroy them. Once that groove is established, they can turn their attention towards the deep and rewarding scoring system. All in all, this is a strange yet very enjoyable shooter. Give it a go sometime.
